What 튃 means
“Twigs” is a generated label, not a Korean definition. Unicode builds Hangul syllable names from component names. Here the final cluster ㄳ contains the consonants ㄱ and ㅅ; a Korean IME treats it as the syllable ending. The English-looking label is not a Korean word for branches.
Hangul was devised as an alphabet for Korean, with letters representing speech sounds and joining into syllable blocks. The 1446 Hunminjeongeum (훈민정음), an early guide to Hangul, explains this sound-based construction.
Korean spelling was shaped by the 1933 unified-spelling proposal and a partial revision in 1988; these reforms concern spelling rules generally, not a new meaning for this block. Hangul typefaces can vary the spacing and stroke balance inside a syllable square without changing the encoded character.
Neutral as Hangul text; the word-like English label can mislead if read as a Korean definition.

1Why does 튃 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
